Following on from the success of The Play That Goes Wrong, this is another triumphant farce from Theatre Mischief, ideal for the Christmas season and for anyone that's ever seen - or been in - a Nativity Play.
The Christian Humanitarian Reading Initiative for Spiritual Theatre (or C.H.R.I.S.T. for short) are putting on a production of The Nativity Story. It's opening night and nothing is going to plan. Despite a collapsing manger, a deranged donkey, and a director on the brink of hysteria, the show must go on.
This hilarious tour-de-force is the second farce from Mischief, creators of the critically acclaimed The Play That Goes Wrong. Once again, we watch as order unravels itself and pandemonium ensues in a piece that will be loved both as a piece to perform and one to watch.
The Nativity Goes Wrong received its world premiere at Reading Rep on 22 December.
